sarah's Arty Dreams

everyday life of a stay at home mom/artist

Reflection

, ,


She gazed into the reflection pool

seeing what she wanted to see

a princess, a beauty staring back.

But truth only be told today

the reflection that she sees

Is not the one that shows

to others.



Talking lovingly to herself

stroking the glassy surface of

the water with a red flower

tucked behind her ear

She whispers sweet nothings…

to herself.



Ugliness did not exist in her

mind previously struggling with

a pain of seeing what they saw

Only to have her eyes opened

on that day…that she discovered

the reflection pool.



The truth of the reflection pool is

it shows the manifestation of the

spirit and the true beauty

that lies inside the mind of all.

She is not the once 'ugly' person

they accused her of being.



Look into the mind

look into the character

there the true person

is existing.

I love it! We need to all find that in ourselves...not looking to others for validation. heart
